So it's Sunday 13th of May, I'm supposed to be leaving England to go to Korea in 3 weeks time, and I receive an unexpected email from the 'Transition' guys in Taiwan asking me if i'd be able to come out to Taiwan to shoot a music video for them - the only catch is that I'd have to be on a plane tomorrow… In actual fact for me this means packing up my entire life in England and moving out to Asia ( since there is no point in me coming back to England after Taiwan, only to fly back out to Korea a few days later).
So within the space of about 16 hours I have to pack up my room, buy a plane ticket, decide what to take with me, empty my bank accounts, and say an abrupt goodbye to my friends and family!
That said, a long drawn out goodbye and be equally as exhausting. I think my biggest regret is not having got to say a proper goodbye to my parents.

Taiwan was great, I was well looked after by all the guys and very comfortable living at Niall, Hannah & and little Edie's place.
The music video we were shooting was for the Taiwanese Olympic Committee, as Transition had written and given them a song to use as the Taiwanese Olympic Teams's Official Song.
We were so busy rushing around the first few days that we almost didn't get time to even come up with an idea for the Music video, but luckily we managed to have a few conversation before and on the day that formed the general story for the video - something about watching the Olympics on screens, playing in a stadium and having a Polar Bear as a Mascot.
Even though the whole process was a bit rushed, it turned out ok and we had a lot of fun making it.
Here's a simple little making of video:
